***Official 2018 Stanley Cup playoffs thread: Caps and Mystics to raise banners together in October. Congrats DC!!!!!!! (1 Viewer)

Licensed biz-wise...surprisingly the Caps are at 85% of the VGN for If Win Cup. Vegas has been roughly 80% of the Black Hawks #s all postseason, the biggest NHL event on record. Huge. And the Caps were like 25% of Vegas all PS until 3 weeks ago...been steadily building since. Tough market with little retail compared CHI, PHI, etc...online (locals) and stadium numbers driving. The area will explode if they actually pull it off.

 
Already suffered a devastating setback. Settling into the couch, reaching for a brimming frosted glass full of a Union Brewing Double Duckpin, and I dumped the whole damn thing on the basement wall to wall carpet. 

Not coincidentally I’m half drunk already so I won’t miss the beer that much. But it’s not a good omen, plus my wife at some point is going to come down here and note it smells like a frat house. Which is actually where we met, so she has harbored a negative association with that smell for nearly a quarter-century now 
Slow down the drinking. You’ll want to remember tonight.

I appreciate the sentiment but I got to stick with what got me here. 

Also, today is 40th anniversary of Bullets’ only championship, won on the road. Seems significant 

 
Nice Dale Hunter shot on the Knight from behind. Should now have the catapult shot hit the post instead of the Capital guy to make it realistic

Can't be 100, but I believe the pre-game show just suggested if you can't beat them on the ice fire cheap shots across the back of TJ Oshie.

 
Great Caps start. Wilson crushing guys, Holtby looking sharp, and withstanding that early Vegas home surge. Surprised Reaves is a scratch. Actually thought he’s been one of the best Knights this series 

 
I’m always a little sad when the season ends and there’s no more hockey, but I cannot wait to get the F away from the “real smoooth” commercial 

 
Good call. If this is regular season, Trotz buries Djoos on the bench for a month. Caps need not to get sucked into another Vegas run and gun track meet

 
IDK if that was worth losing your time out over. Game still early and that TO might be needed at the end of the game

Two things-

It lets Holtby know his coach has his back.

The review delay is basically taking your TO then to slow down Vegas momentum. 

 
What odds can I get the LVGK to win the Cup in-between periods here?  Still like +300 or so?  Maybe 350?

Caps were down 3-2 after 2 in Game 3 at Pittsburgh. Niskanen got them even midway through 3rd and Ovie won it in final minute 

that would be ok. Just need to play their game again

 
Where would the Caps be in this entire playoff series without Smith Pelly.   So damn clutch
